Janita Poe

Hometown: Atlanta, GA

Races Completed: One marathon, 18 half marathons

Training Tip: To keep my training strong I have traveled to Phoenix and Chicago for full marathons and Cleveland and Chattanooga for halfs.

Craziest Memory: I just remember my first "Publix" (ING at the Time). That year, I ran marathon. I recall running on what is now the John Lewis Freedom Parkway, though I may be wrong. I do know we were on an expressway path that had been shut down for runners. While on that stretch I recall thinking "what have I gotten myself into?!"
